[QUOTE="Augusta_Jacket, post: 895420, member: 1191"] While I agree with you, the question that has to be asked is which is more important for us: 1. Raise the academic standards and allow no special exceptions for athletes while demanding athletic excellence, [B][I]OR[/I][/B], 2. Demand athletic excellence while keeping a lowered, but not absent, set of academic standards for athletes. If option 1 is the answer, then we will never be competitive in P5 football without a universal change in the NCAA rules on student athletes. Since this is a non-starter that means we either have to realize we will be a non-competitive outlier or find a league like the Ivy League to play in. Option 2, which is where we currently reside, is hard enough for us. I'm not advocating for anything to make it harder... [/QUOTE]
